Hi jipvankuijk
afaik the Amazon Store is more a problem of the missing TLS support bevore 3.4.2, but that's not the point here.
What fb.modes file do you have now?
You could use the old one (about 1,5kB in size), patch the right MD5 code into the inventory file of the updater (so he belives everything is fine, else it fails).
Updateing from 3.3 to 3.4 was the most work to patch it. You might have read some of my posts of the last month, but while you gain the TLS function (and therefor a working internet access you probably have to fix the higher RAM usage (via swap file) and in my case a crackling audio device and a fixed standby time (600secs). The registration at amazon could be regained by calling them and ask them to reintegrate it. They see your S/N and can add your device that from their site.
Cheers
Sam

I need these last few steps because 3.3 can no longer connect with the Amazon store etc. due to the SSL 3.0 thing.
I am however stuck on the following part: I don't know where to get the /etc/fb.modes file from and how to do this patching it bla bla.
The guide is very clear and well written except for this part!
I hope someone can help me 
Right now I'm stuck with a useless device since I can't access the Amazon store. |
